Abstract
This session addresses the growing need to equip both subject and functional librarians with essential AI competencies. Drawing on a 2025 survey of academic library faculty, the presenters explore how librarians perceive the distribution of AI-related skills across roles. Competencies discussed include understanding foundational technologies, critically evaluating digital information, ensuring ethical accountability, and optimizing AI-generated content. The session offers practical strategies for building and assessing these competencies and fostering a collaborative environment that supports ongoing professional development in AI.
